Lot's of talk about RE5 and the concept of racism. I was wondering if anyone has an opinion on another game they actually consider racist?

I think the only thing that I personally would throw out there would be the racial stereotype of the Barret character from Final Fantasy 7. Outside of that, not a lot I can mention off the top of my head.

Pacman-definitely discrimination against dots and cherries.

Frogger-Racism against green frogs if I have ever seen it.

Centipede-Blatant racism against insects right there. Why this game was never banned, I will never know.

I would have to say GTA3 San Andreas since you play as a black character that can go around killing all the white characters in the city since thats what it mostly consist of.

I've played a few games that had racism from many different and varied races as a base for its story... But something that called me or gave me the feeling of racism as a whole? Nope not really... Or at least I can't really remember one.

My background is Assyrian (Middle Eastern) and I have played games like Desert Storm. I am completely okay with any games that are set in the Middle East. How can anybody believe a mere gamecan beoffensive?

Nope, not at all. I own Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, but just because you are a black man killing mostly white people, doesn't mean you are racist. I am also pretty sure there are some black people, just more white people. I haven't played the viddeo game fully, though, so I guess I cannot really say it's racist. I am just kind of surprised three people mentioned the Grand Theft Auto series.

Final Fantasy XI. Tarutarus have a hard time finding a party as damage dealers/fighters because we're thought of as weak. I proved them wrong with my level 70 warrior. ;) Oh, I was also in an all tarutaru linkshell..no other race could join.

re5 might be controversial, but GTA IV and manhunt will over shadow it.
